just doing the right things makes a world of differnce

A small article demonstrated how something so simple as planting trees can make a person who is down on their luck feel connected to the world around them.
Edgar Sosa-Mieles the program director of New Leaf firmly believes in helping the homeless by 'growing plants and harvesting people'. In the article it notes that "he relates the work of horticulture to help navigate the working world without drugs and by building their self esteem."

An honorable attempt at using nature to expand and heal damaged peoples worlds.
